This was writen last year for Fathers day, I did not know it would be my last one with him.
Daddy
Daddy when I fell you wiped away my tears,
when I was scared you took away my fears.
Daddy you taught me right from wrong,
you tried to teach Brandie and me to get along.
Daddy over the years I've grown strong,
knowing in your home I will always belong.
Daddy you gave me hope when I had none,
staying by my side till every job was done.
Daddy you taught me to bowl, sing and dance,
pushing me harder when there was a new chance.
Daddy I told you to "twise it" and you tired,
when it worked you laughed until you cried.
Daddy you might not know what you mean to me,
but one day you will see.
Daddy you've seen me at my worst and best,
teach me more as I go through the rest.
